The Transactional Risks team combines deep expertise and understanding of risk and underwriting of M&A and corporate transactions with a mature and commercial approach to delivering solution-led service, appreciating the need for responsiveness, innovation, and an enthusiasm for problem-solving.
Led by Richard Mills, Managing Director, the team underwrites risks across the UK, Europe and the Middle East, comprising warranty & indemnity insurance and contingent liability insurance (with tax liability insurance to follow in due course to complete the suite). The team operates primarily from London, where a team of five run the portfolio, including Head of Europe, Sam Batchelor, who focuses on pan-European opportunities and growth, plus our Head of Middle East, Denis Nifontov, who operates out of our office in Dubai.
